Place half of the rectangles in boiling water, adding 1 or 2 at a time and stirring gently to keep separated; gently boil uncovered 20 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon; gently toss with half of the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Repeat with remaining half of rectangles. Cover dumplings loosely with plastic wrap; set aside.

Expert Tips

Use halibut or cod for the red snapper.

This fish and dumpling medley is reminiscent of one-pot dishes typically cooked in iron pots in West Africa and the Caribbean. Though the vessel has changed, today's cooks still simmer delectable concoctions, if a little more quickly.
